Hiroshima Posted by: MikeinJapan2007
Video duration: 506 seconds 10-23-07. We took an hour and a half train ride from Osaka to Hiroshima. If you'll notice at the beginning, the kids still wear those shorts,yellow caps, and backpacks like in the Gamera/Godzilla movies. The video is longer than it probably needs to be, but it was hard to walk away from quickly. Related: hiroshima |

The Island of Sodoku Posted by: MikeinJapan2007
Video duration: 584 seconds This is a large Island south of Osaka. Jimmy and I took a 3 hour train ride to get there. We crossed the 6 mile (over water)Seto-Ohashi Bridge from Okayama to the town of Takamatsu where this video was taken. We had about an hour before we had to get back on the train for the 3 hour ride back. Too bad. It was a beautiful view of the Pacific Ocean. Related: shikoku |

Video duration: 170 seconds The MapleHouse was the first gig the first night in Tokyo 10-18-07 (my birthday!). This guitarist was one of the few musicians we saw that sang in English. He was a really nice guy and he's doing a pretty good version of Lurv Lurv Lurv by Eric Clapton. Related: maplehouse |

Varit Live House in Kobe Posted by: MikeinJapan2007
Video duration: 278 seconds Tuesday 10-22-07 on Kobe. We had a great steak dinner that night. I was a cook-it-yourself type restaurant and we drank a little more than we should have before the show, but it went well. The first acoustic soloist was at the soundcheck. The next act was our opener. "Interesting" is the kindest word I can come up with. Related: varit |
